Reuters: Bankruptcy court allows FTX to temporarily withhold the names of institutional clients and permanently delete the names of individual clients.
According to BlockBeats news on June 10th, US bankruptcy judge John Dorsey in Wilmington, Delaware ruled that FTX can permanently remove the names of individual customers from its bankruptcy application. This decision was based on FTX's testimony that "publicly disclosing customer names would put them at risk," even if other identifying information such as email addresses are kept confidential.
In addition, John Dorsey authorized FTX to temporarily remove the names of company and institutional investors from its customer list, but FTX must make a new request within 90 days. Dorsey stated that institutional clients will not face the same risks as individuals, but if FTX decides to sell its cryptocurrency trading business as a whole, the names of institutional clients may be valuable assets to them.
